Arkansas EMS Org Improves Pediatric Behavioral Health Patient Care with Pulsara
The mental health of America’s youth is under duress, and it didn’t start with COVID-19. It’s a problem that’s been a much longer time coming. In...
As a medic, you matter to your patients’ care.
You are the first person on the scene. You are the first to see the patient, to assess them, and to decide what kind of treatment they need. You decide whether they need transport to the ED, or whether they are safe to stay at home.
Your decisions guide and influence the rest of their care journey.
For most medics, involvement with a patient’s case ends when they drop the patient off at the hospital. Most don’t receive any feedback on the patient’s case, how their treatment went, or what their outcome was. Only one in three EMS agencies reports having any access to electronic, patient-specific medical information.
But...you need this kind of feedback. (What gets tracked gets improved.)
Seeing the outcome of each case helps you see exactly what you did right, and where your decisions made a difference to the patient. It also helps you identify areas you can work to improve. Not only that, you gain peace of mind from knowing what happened to that patient you transported yesterday.
Viewing the case from the other end gives you a great deal of new insight...insight that could make the difference for your next patient.
That’s why we designed our platform to keep you in the loop. When a patient’s case is completed in Pulsara, every member of their care team gets notified that there is a summary available to view. You can see the details of the patient’s case, their outcome, and how your actions contributed to the patient’s overall care journey.
Our data shows that treatment times decrease when EMS starts the patient’s case in Pulsara. By initiating the patient’s channel, you make sure that the people who need your information receive it instantly. You are the reason they have time to prepare for your patient...which makes you the difference in that patient’s outcome.
